Default hand brake gaiter

Plan A I failed miserably to make a leather handbrake gaiter it could be something to do with the fact that i am useless on a sewing machine so I decided to try to make one from alloy. Plan B made some templates and cut the alloy.




But I don't like it too big and bulky The whilst reading the thread by Lancelot on vintage handbrakes i thought that looks a lot better I'll see if I can make something similar.

Plan C It won't be the who handbrake assembly just a similar looking cover.

So far so good a lot simpler with only two alloy sides and some spacers polish it up and drill some holes for effect hoping to finish it next week end watch this space
